I love spoilers, so I knew going into the prime-time airing of the women’s free skate that Alysa Liu would be taking the gold. That information didn’t take away any of the excitement—the instantly recognizable halo-haired figure skater delivered a practically perfect routine with an unparalleled level of chill. But for the makeup-obsessed, there was something else we needed to know even after she secured first place: What was that lip color Liu was so insistent upon reapplying before heading to the podium?
Some viewers noticed that Liu asked, “Where’s my lipstick?” once the results were announced, and eagle-eyed beauty buffs saw that she was then holding a lip gloss. For those of us with an encyclopedic knowledge of beauty packaging, it didn’t take long to realize which popular product it was.
Super sleuths like TikTok creator @abbythebadassmom was quick to let her followers know that she identified the gloss in question as Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil. And Abby gets extra credit for figuring out the exact shade, too. “I have been analyzing interviews and footage from the moment she won that gold,” she tells followers. “She is wearing shade Delight.” And you won’t see an argument from me! It definitely looks like Liu is sporting that gorgeous rosy-brown stain.

We all know that Olympic athletes often end up with brand contracts, so I wouldn’t be surprised if Selena Gomez sets up a call with Liu in the next few weeks. But at the very least, Liu’s beauty-loving fans want to make sure she’s stocked up on her favorite lip color.

“Rare Beauty marketing team, go get on it. Go send our girl Alysa Liu a whole bunch of lipsticks,” said TikTok creator @joditalks.
You have to admit, she’s earned it! And Delight’s warm tone really does complement her gold medal.
